## Summary

The Department for Transport (DfTc) has completed a tender process titled "DfT Records Management Services 2025-26," aimed at procuring a comprehensive records management and storage solution. The service involves storing, managing, transporting, and destroying off-site paper government records, with an option for digitisation. The procurement caters to the British Overseas Territories, Channel Islands, Europe, Isle of Man, Rest of the World, and the United Kingdom. The procurement method was a direct single tender action below the threshold, with the contract period running from 7 July 2025 to 6 July 2026. The tender process concluded with the award granted on 1 October 2025, and published on 7 November 2025, with a total value of GBP 14,674 under the service category "Packaging services" (CPV 79921000).

This contract presents a robust opportunity for businesses specialising in records management, particularly for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) due to their suitability considerations. Companies providing logistics, storage, and digitisation services can benefit significantly from developing solutions for government entities. Given the temporary nature of the provision preceding a larger contract, participatory businesses can leverage this opportunity to showcase their capabilities and potentially secure long-term contracts. This procurement can serve as a strategic partnership avenue with the DfT, located in London. Additionally, businesses with an expertise in handling sensitive government documents across multiple regions would find this project particularly fitting.
